Hockey season is here, Book Nerds, which means the Boy Aquarium is officially OPEN.
This week, we’re yapping about some of our favorite hockey romance books and series, from the big names you probably already have on your TBR to a few older and underrated reads we think deserve more love. We’re talking Becca Mack, S.J. Tilly, S.J. Sylvis, Kandi Steiner, Brittany Nicole, and plenty more, with all the fake dating, forced proximity, golden retrievers, grumpy goalies, and hockey book boyfriends our little romance-reader hearts could want. Naturally, we take a few side quests along the way because… have you met us? Grab your snacky snack and beverage of choice and come hang out in the Boy Aquarium with us!

This week, we’re joined by romance author Lucy Wilson-Tagoe, who longtime readers may also know by her pen name Dylan Allen, to talk writing, reinvention, and her newest release, To Catch a Sinner.
And because this is What the Smut, we obviously do not stay on one topic for very long. Andddddd we may have forgot to hit the record button...
Lucy takes us behind the scenes of her writing process, from plotting complicated stories in spreadsheets to leaving just enough room for the feral chaos to take over. We also talk about the characters who completely hijacked her life, the tiny character details she obsesses over, and why apparently knowing exactly how someone laughs is essential information.
Then we dive into To Catch a Sinner, the first book in Lucy’s new romantic suspense duet.
Mary also shares why she immediately thought this story needed to become a miniseries, while Cortney patiently waits for the audiobook (its out NOW) because we all know she is our resident audio girlie.
If you love romance books, romantic suspense, indie romance authors, audiobook romance, friends-to-lovers, morally gray characters, bookish podcasts, author interviews, or behind-the-scenes conversations about writing, this episode is for you.
Grab your favorite snacky snack, your beverage of choice, and come hang out while we talk books, writing, side quests, gummy bears, laundry services, and all the chaos in between.
And as always, slide into our DMs and tell us what you’re reading, watching, or what completely unhinged thought has been living rent-free in your head this week.

This week, we’re bringing back one of our OG bookish chats featuring Samantha Brinn (before she was a published romance author) and doing a full deep dive into Kiss and Don't Tell by Tessa Meghan Quinn.
But first, Cortney and Mary are checking in with a little summer chaos. We’re talking current romance reads, the books living rent-free in our heads, reading slumps, and our ever-growing TBRs.
Then we jump back into our original conversation with Sam to talk all things Vancouver Agitators.
Whether Kiss and Don't Tell is one of your favorite Meghan Quinn books or it has been sitting untouched on your TBR, come hang out with us while we revisit the romance and Meghan just released that these babies are coming to stores because they were picked up by Bloom and will be re-releasing soon with new covers!!!

We’re throwing it back to 2024 for the perfect summer rerelease, Book Nerds!
This week, we’re bringing back one of our OG bookish chats featuring Zoey from ZozosBookshelf and doing a full deep dive into It Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey.
But first, Cortney and Mary are checking in with a little summer chaos. We’re talking current romance reads, the books living rent-free in our heads, reading slumps, our ever-growing TBRs, reality TV, and somehow the fact that our kids don’t understand what life was like when you actually had to put a DVD into a player.
Then we jump back into our original conversation with Zoey to talk all things Piper and Brendan.
If you love grumpy/sunshine romance, small-town romance, enemies-to-lovers vibes, he falls first, obsessed heroes, spicy romance books, and a FMC who has some serious character growth, this one is for you.
Whether It Happened One Summer is one of your favorite Tessa Bailey books or it has been sitting untouched on your TBR, come hang out with us while we revisit the romance, the spice, the fishermen, and all the chaos.
Spoiler Warning: We deep dive into the entire book, so if you haven’t read It Happened One Summer yet and don’t want spoilers, you will want to stop the episode when we give the spoiler warning and the come back afterwards!
Grab your favorite snacky snack, your beverage of choice, and come see what the smut we’re talking about this week.
And as always, slide into our DMs and tell us: Who would YOU have cast as Piper, Brendan, Hannah, and Fox?

From the publisher's feed
What The Smut Are You Talking About Podcast is a romance book podcast where two smut-loving co-hosts bring their honest, unfiltered, and completely chaotic lives to the internet. We chat all things…
Each week is a surprise (even to us), because anything goes. Expect romance book deep dives, general book talk, fun interviews with people we have no business interviewing, and whatever else we spiral into along the way.
This podcast is for romance readers 18+ who make reading their personality, thrive in chaos, and have an unhealthy obsession with fictional men who set unrealistic standards. If that's you, then welcome home.
Come listen to see What the Smut we're talking about this week!
